Happy 1st birthday Drupal 8!

I can't think of a better way to celebrate Drupal 8's one year anniversary than by sharing some incredible experiences that are being created with Drupal 8. Whether the project is big or small, features dinosaurs, or spreads awareness for an important cause, I'm proud to say that Drupal 8 is supporting an amazing array of projects. In my recent keynote at DrupalCon Dublin, I explained why the why of Drupal is so important. After one year of Drupal 8, it's clear how powerful our collective purpose, projects, and passions can be.

Thank you to everyone who has continued to contribute to Drupal 8! I can't wait for another year of exciting projects. Special thanks to Paul Johnson for crowdsourcing great examples that I wouldn't have known about otherwise.

Yay for one year of Drupal 8! Not sure if you've heard, but we're hosting a "celebration" tomorrow at http://www.drupal8day.com/. We're spending the day hosting 17 free, live, sessions to share information about Drupal 8 for all who are interested. Kind of like a virtual Drupal Camp. I heard from Steve Burge yesterday that we have more than 1,700 registrations already!
